Description of the new feature / enhancement

When I'm writing nvm instructions, it doesn't help that the nvm on windows suggest to instaall the lts without the -- because then I havve to add instructions to use -- for non-windows users.

Scenario when this would be used?

Writing software that is developed on all operating systems and not just on Windows.

Also nvm use --lts does not work :(

nvm-sh and nvm-windows differ in fundamental ways. Neither project follows the other. This has been described in past issues, as well as the wiki. There is no intention of adding a flag for --lts.

Our cross-platform solution is Runtime, which will replace this project in 2024.
